Americ J. Bryniarski Engineer Arkansas

The Committee started this meeting by delving directly into the matter of
water accounting procedures in Subbasin 5, Reach II as per the directions of
the Commission in their April 27, 1982 meeting. The main topic of the
discussion was the proposed accounting procedure as submitted by Texas, which
the Louisiana member contended that was "step two" for the most part, and
this was concurred in by Arkansas.
Louisiana suggested that we all work with some sort of mapping system than
would be considereably more detailed and accurate that those included in the
recently completed Engineers Report. It was concluded that we all use the
same mapppng and a suggestion was made that the 1:250,000 series maps be
investigated for a possible atlas type series with a "take-apart" binding.
This mapping problem and an inventory of gages, flows and diversions was set
out as a first priority by Louisiana and was also concurred in by Arkansas.
The positions and distribution of the present gagins system was then examined
and discussed.
The matter of how we should or could use the Hosston gage to make a determi-nation
of the flows in the Red River main stem at the Arkansas-Louisiana
state line. It was the consensus that this should be explored in further
detail. The adequacy of the existing gaging system was raised by Oklahoma
and Texas suggested that we first had to plan how we were going to account,
then we would look at the gages and ask are they adequate to do this or can
